Abstract

A system for measuring quantity of motion and a location is provided to transmit data of various types at the same time with position measurement by measuring a location with an UWB signal instead of a GPS satellite signal. An RF transceiver(101) is installed at a boundary of a building. A controller(103) has the RF transceiver and a pressure sensor. A transceiver confirms own location through wireless telecommunication(105). If the own location is confirmed, information is transmitted to the controller mounted on shoes(102). The controller confirms the own location by receiving the information of a boundary transceiver.

Description

압력센서를 이용한 위치인식 및 운동량 측정 시스템{Location and quantity of motion measurement system based on pressure sensor}Location and quantity of motion measurement system based on pressure sensor

본 발명은 사용자의 위치 인식 및 압력센서를 이용한 운동량을 측정하는 시스템을 구현하기 위한 것이다. The present invention is to implement a system for measuring the amount of exercise using the user's position recognition and pressure sensor.

기존의 위치 측정은 GPS를 이용하는 것이 일반적이지만 이는 5-10m 정도의 오차를 발생시키기 때문에 UWB 신호를 사용하는것이 보다 정확한 위치 측정이 가능하다. 여기에 압력센서를 이용하여 압력의 변화에 따른 운동량을 측정한다.Conventional position measurement uses GPS, but it generates 5-10m error, so it is more accurate to use UWB signal. Here, using a pressure sensor to measure the amount of exercise according to the change in pressure.

사용자의 운동량을 측정하기 위하여 신발 바닥에 압력센서를 부착하여 변화The pressure sensor is attached to the bottom of the shoe to measure the amount of exercise of the user.

하는 압력에 따른 운동량을 계산한다. 여기에 정확한 위치 측정을 위하여 GPS 위성 신호 대신에 UWB(초광대역) 신호를 이용한다. UWB 신호는 매우 넓은 대역폭을 갖고 있으며 매우 높은 중심 주파수를 갖고 있기 때문에 수 cm 이하의 정확도를 갖고 물체의 위치를 측정할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 UWB 송수신기를 이용하면 위치 측정과 함께 다양한 형태의 데이터(음성, 영상등)를 동시에 송수신할 수 있다. Calculate the momentum according to the pressure. Here, UWB (Ultra Wideband) signals are used instead of GPS satellite signals for accurate position measurement. UWB signals have a very wide bandwidth and have a very high center frequency and are known to measure the position of objects with a few centimeters or less accuracy. In addition, the UWB transceiver can transmit and receive various types of data (audio, video, etc.) simultaneously with position measurement.

따라서 본 발명에서는 UWB 송수신기를 건물 주변에 배치하여 사용자의 절대 좌표를 확인한다. 그리고 신발에 압력센서를 장착하여 압력의 변화에 따른 운동량을 측정한다.Therefore, in the present invention, the UWB transceiver is located around the building to check the absolute coordinates of the user. And the pressure sensor is attached to the shoe to measure the amount of exercise according to the pressure change.

또한 기존의 인터넷 또는 CDMA 망 등과 연동하여 수집된 데이터를 서버와 송신하고 이들을 관리할 수 있다.In addition, the collected data can be transmitted to the server and managed in conjunction with the existing Internet or CDMA network.

본 발명은 위치 기반 네트워크를 구성하기 위하여 이동 가능한 UWB 송수신기, 그리고 신발에 부착가능한 컨트럴러, 압력 센서 등으로 구성 된다. 또한, 무선 인터넷 또는 CDMA 모듈이 장착 될 수 있다. 또한, 이들을 운영할 수 있는 소프트웨어, 데이터 수집 관리를 위한 서버 시스템이 추가됨으로써 완전한 발명의 구성이 이루어 진다. The present invention consists of a movable UWB transceiver, a controller attached to a shoe, a pressure sensor, and the like, to construct a location-based network. In addition, it can be equipped with a wireless Internet or CDMA module. In addition, the configuration of the complete invention is achieved by the addition of software that can operate them, and a server system for data collection management.

위치 측정은 GPS를 이용하는 것이 일반적이지만 이는 5-10m 정도의 오차를 발생 시킨다. 따라서 이보다 정확한 위치를 측정할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 UWB 신호를 이용한다. UWB 신호는 매우 넓은 대역폭을 갖고 있으며 매우 높은 중심 주파수를 갖고 있기 때문에 수 cm 이하의 정확도를 갖고 물체의 위치를 측정할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 UWB 송수신기를이용하면 위치 측정과 함께 다양한 형태의 데이터(음성, 영상 등)를 동시에 송수신할 수 있다. 따라서 이를 이용하면 사용자의 위치를 실시간으로 파악이 가능하고, 또한 압력센서를 장착하여 압력의 변화에 따른 사용자의 운동량을 파악할 수 있다. 이러한 형태의 시스템을 활용하면 병원,각종 건물 등 매우 다양한 분야에 응용할 수 있다. It is common to use GPS for position measurement, but this causes an error of about 5-10m. Therefore, there is a need for a more accurate position measurement method. For this purpose, UWB signals are used. UWB signals have a very wide bandwidth and have a very high center frequency and are known to measure the position of objects with a few centimeters or less accuracy. In addition, the UWB transceiver can simultaneously transmit and receive various types of data (audio, video, etc.) along with position measurement. Therefore, using this, it is possible to determine the user's position in real time, and also equipped with a pressure sensor can determine the amount of exercise of the user according to the change in pressure. By using this type of system, it can be applied to a wide variety of fields such as hospitals and various buildings.

본 발명은 도1 과 같이 건물의 경계에 설치하는 무선 송수신기(101)와 무선 송수신기와 압력센서를 갖춘 컨트럴러(103)로 구성된다. 현재의 예는 4개의 무선 송수신기를 배치 하였지만, 건물의 규모나 모양에 따라서 더 많은 위치확인 송수신기를 배치할 수 있다. 또한 건물이 매우 넓을 경우 위치확인 송수신기를 건물의 중간에 배치 하여서 보다 신뢰성 있는 위치 정보를 주고 받을 수 있다.우선 사용자는 건물의 경계에 송수신기(101)를 배치한다. 이들 송수신기는 서로 무선 통신(105)을 통하여 자신의 위치를 확인한다. 일단 자신의 위치가 확인되면 이들 정보를 신발(102)에 장착된 컨트럴러로 정보를 송신(104)한다. 이때 자신의 위치 정보를 각각의 송수신기(101)가 할 수도 있고 그 중 서버 역할을 하는 하나의 송수신기가 할 수 도 있다. 따라서 모든 무선 송수신기는 구조가 모두 같으며 단지 firmware의 구성만 다르게 하여 이를 구성할 수 있다. 컨트럴러(103)는 경계 송수신기의 정보를 받아서 자신의 위치를 확인한다. 또한 미리 프로그램된 프로그램에 의하여 자신의 위치를 디스플레이 한다. 또한, 도2의 신발(200)은 컨트럴러(201)뿐만 자신의 절대좌표를 얻기 위하여 UWB 무선신호 장치(202)를 장착할 수 있다. 또한, 신발에 압력 센서(203)을 장착하여 사용자의 운동량을 파악 한다. 또한, 무선 랜 등 기존의 인터넷 망과 연동할 수 있는 통신 장비들도 함께 장치한다. 이를 통하여 외부에서 위치 및 운동량 정보를 원격으로 모니터링 할 수 있으며 사용자의 위치 및 운동량을 서버에 저장 관리 할 수 있다.The present invention is composed of a wireless transceiver 101 installed at the boundary of the building as shown in Figure 1 and a controller 103 having a wireless transceiver and a pressure sensor. The current example has deployed four radio transceivers, but more positioning transceivers can be deployed depending on the size and shape of the building. In addition, if the building is very large, the positioning transceiver can be placed in the middle of the building to transmit and receive more reliable location information. First, the user places the transceiver 101 at the boundary of the building. These transceivers identify their position via wireless communication 105 with each other. Once their location is identified, the information is transmitted 104 to a controller mounted on the shoe 102. At this time, each of the transceivers 101 may perform its own location information, or one of the transceivers serving as a server may be. Therefore, all radio transceivers have the same structure and can be configured by only different firmware configuration. The controller 103 receives the information of the boundary transceiver and confirms its position. It also displays its position by a preprogrammed program. In addition, the shoe 200 of FIG. 2 may be equipped with the UWB radio signal device 202 to obtain its absolute coordinates as well as the controller 201. In addition, the pressure sensor 203 is mounted on the shoe to determine the amount of exercise of the user. In addition, communication devices that can interoperate with the existing Internet network, such as wireless LAN is also installed. Through this, you can remotely monitor location and momentum information from outside and store and manage user's position and momentum in server.
